WEXFORD.

On September. 10, when the Byrnes,
the released Coo!greany prisoners, ar
rived at Corey from jail they were ac-
corded most happy welcome. They
We're escorted from the railway station
to the National League rooms where a
grand demonstration in their honor had
been arranged. The Rev James Dun
ply. of Arklow, presided, and speeches
were delivered by Sir Thomas Grattan
Esmonde, NJ. p, Father Farrelly, and
others. Sir Thomas said that the day
of the Coercionists was over. and per-
haps before the next session of oarlia-
ment we may have a party in power
which will accede to the just demands
Of our country, which will grant Home
Rule to Ireland, and will declare that
the land OF Ireland belongs to the peo-
pie that cultivated it. The speaker
said the proclamation of the League
amounted to nothing. They would
hold their meetings just the same. The
Byrnes, continued Mr. Esmonde, will
now so back to the temporary houses
which have been erected for them, and
which, we hope, they will not long have
to tenant; but as long as there shall re-
main one farthing in the National ex-
chequer SO long will the eyicted fami-
lies be supported. We have longer
purse than the landlords, and we will
see that the tenants will not be forgot
ten. II we have to go around the world
for money we will do so, and will con-
trive to support the tenantry so long as
Hamilton refuses to come to terms with
them.

they had not anticipated. Sweeney,
the balliff on the island, who had az
ranged with Vereker to point out the
cattle to be seized, refused to perform
that duty, stating that the people had
snapped the cattle, meaning thereby
that those against whom there were not
DEGREES had taken over the cattle Of the
others and vice versa in anticipation OF
the party's visit. The Inhabitants OF
the island assembled in large numbers
determined to resist any attempt TO
